Fresh-Pressed Beauty

Let’s talk color! This season, we draw inspiration from the vibrant, farm-fresh hues abundant at our favorite juice bar. These shades deliver a juicy dose of color, look great on a multitude of skin tones, and are sure to keep you feeling radiant from day to night. After trying these energizing fruit and veggie-inspired shades, we’re sure your hearts will BEET for them too!

These shades are wonderful for more reasons than just their flattery, vibrance, and hypoallergenic, good-for-you benefits: they are buildable (for just a hint of color) and versatile. Use them together (instructions below) for full-on, fresh-pressed glam. Or, use them individually for a pop of fresh-pressed color just where you want it — in the photo above, Sam (far left) applied all shades (she chose Danger for lips) but used a light touch; Jess went with Spitfire, very lightly applied, on lips, and went heavier with Bellini on cheeks; and Georgia chose the berry smoky eye with Chalet.

How To “Dew” Fresh-Pressed Glam:

AÇAÍ EYES:

Take a page from this purple superfood – it translates perfectly into a stunning smoky eye!

Use the darker side (Laura’s Burgundy) of Two True Hues Eyeshadow palette in ‘Chalet’ to contour eyes.

Take It “Skinside”:
